Notes About The Poem

image-imgbb.com
original format

as words —
         move  
                  like the  melody  of  rain,
            — somehow creating a beautiful  mood

 … a whisper of      love —
                    falls lightly upon my skin.  

 

—  you then
            softly say,

           breathe me in
                               and stay . . .

                         let me take your breath away.

       
         
              i melt
                     in the melody
so whisper once again,

as the tip-tapping of rain    
          continues to create  a   poetic symphony
                        — between  breaths

                                    … yours and mine.

The fact is, rain is therapy for the soul and spirit, even though we experience all of it's delights through our physical. If we pay attention it speaks to us. You sum this up quite beautifully here.. I want to close my eyes again, after reading your crafted words, and meditate on life's gifts. Thank you for the beautiful moment. Blessings, Sx :)

READ 2nd: I came back to laugh with you because my poem is called, "Just not by Friday." I could have edited but I think it's funny and thought you might also like to laugh.

I want to thank you for your words on my 'Just Not By Thursday' poem. Thank you. Good excuse to come over and get some special Brandy. This should and could be a song, I hear a female with a strong voice eased on down to romantic gentle-honey for the song. All romantics would turn it up! CayCay

The melody of rain is so soothing and musical especially to a heart in love. It heightens the romantic fervor. In the cool fluidity of rain, one gets drenched. As ever, the font you choose and the alignment you give to your lines, make your poem stand out. Enjoyed reading it. Sending you love and hugs, dear Brandy.

A compliment to begin with, one that I wasn't expecting. I'm in complete awe with you saying this, Silent One. As the rain lingered in my world, these words found me, and moments felt beautiful.
